utiiio th products of th rich silver
mines of Nevada, which belong to our
nation, us well ax tho bonun11 kings, and
we fee) a natural disjiositiou to make
the most of homo productions, of course,
anil silver brings 10m into the country
as much lis tanned salmon, wheat and
wool.

the gieat maHH of tnidu siImi-is found
too cumbrous for these times that call
steam tuid lightning to do tin ir work
and have the telejihono and tho electriu
light to full back ujKiii. The world
moves, and it seems to have mowd away
fiom silver, which has been too slow to
keep up with the times, and eoplo who
icpresciit tho nineteenth cenluiy cannot
make beasts of burden of themseves to
transpoit metal enough to make a classic

family marketing. If wo are to utilize
all the metals that have been coined into
money, where shall wo cnill Copper

l.vcn gold is found more suitiible for

the time to come speedily when the most

ns indeed it has been depreciating all the
years we have history for, as in the times
of the CicirarH iilthy lucri of that color
and weight would purchase many times
more of life's essentials than at present.
Resumption is hardly attained when wo
hear that tlio hoarded gold is fast being
deposited and quneney drawn in iihuo
of it. If tu).iiix'chh goes on, is simply
shows thatli-iso pice of busiiiexs, people

POLYGAMY DOOMED-
The Mormon leaders arc much exer
cised over the decision of the Supreme
Court sustaining the act passed by Con
gress in 1862, prohibiting pol) gamy. The
dispatches say a case was hrouaht before
the Supreme Court o( the United States
by appeal from the Supreme Louit ol the
Territory of Utah. Mr. Iliddlc of Phila
delphia, who appeared with two lawyers
from Utah, held that th act was aimed
at a religious institution, and in conse
quence was in violation of the first aim
of the Constitution, which declares that
Congress shall make no law prohibiting
the free exercise ol religion. Hut the
Supreme Court decides that the plea of
religious convictions is not a valid dc
fense, and tha polygamous marriages in
the Mormon church arc not protected by
constitutional provisions. This Is a death
blow to polygamy, as there is no further
appeal, and persons convicted of bigamy
In Utah must suffer fine or imprisonment,
or both. The Chief Justice dciircs to
rcviie the decision before it is published.
It is understood to receive the endorse
ment of the full bench, although Judge
Field dissented as to the admissibility of
certain evidence. It is to be hoped that
the last appeal having been taken, and
the law against polvnamy sustaincJ, that
law will now be vigorously enforced, and
tho foul blot on our national character no
longer e.ist. Portland lice.
